The Center for Empowerment and Resilience is a trauma-informed mental health practice dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care to children, adults, families, and couples. We are experienced in addressing trauma, anxiety, ADHD, and performance-based issues, using trauma-informed approaches to support healing, growth, and optimal functioning. As a values-driven group of clinicians, we’re dedicated to healing trauma and empowering resilience in the individuals and communities we serve.
We are currently expanding our team and are looking for licensed mental health therapists who are passionate about making a meaningful impact. Our clinicians are collaborative, grounded, and committed to continual growth—and we have fun while we do deeply important work.
